A very good episode , could not find any faults .

The pace, drama , emotions , reactions of all characters was spot on. Yesterday I had some complaints from the episode like kaumidi's reaction , CC's dialogues etc but not tday.

Lets see the scenes I liked ...

The whole family scene in the living room was very good , everybody's reaction was what was expected and so unfortunately was UB's ...has to defend her son and then ofcourse worry abt the society etc. acting was spot on , it was nice to see pure disgust in manthan and ranjhan's face ...they normally donot have such serious expressions on their face ...the pace was good , everyone's reaction was shown and today kaumidi's distress was clearly evident and like I thought yesterday , she will blame herself.

Liked the way CC corrected UB saying its not kaumidi's fault but mukut , even UB to be fair to her initially scolded mukut , the whole,scene was very balanced ...the best dialogue was from matilal whe he said " zimmedari nibhayi hai , rishten nahi "

Got a very nice anuj , sanaya scene after a while ...loved the hug at the end , especially the way anuj smiled. And yeah , the sisterhood scene was very nice too .

The precap is interesting ...what is kaumidi heard that she has left the house and her leaving the house is definately not a plan as else ( as per sbs ) CC and manav would not be looking for her.

And oh yes , saw some BD's today of manav and CC 😆 , reminded me of old times but first time in 5 months , so well done PH.

Guinea we are seeing the precap completely differently...but you have a point about the SBS segment...let's see...I hope you are right as I don't want a quick fix and want the creatives to give us a proper track.

Hope it rains TRPs after today's episode!

Yeppee. .me first 🥳

Very emotional episode. .[:'(]

As expected UB blamed koumudi. .loved the support of the DILs in such situations. .unlike UB,mathilal always supports whatever he feels is right and so supported his dil over his own son. .

chanman scene was short and cute ❤️

Already waiting for tomorrow's episode 😊

UB was typical MIL ... not surprising at all! The rest of the family was appalled, more at Mukut's defiant tone than even at his affair, I think! But they were all firmly on Kaumudi's side ... except for UB, who was more worried about what society would say ... this was one hand-picked adarsh bahu!

Good to see the differences in the family already starting ... wonder how this will go ...

Loved the way ranjhana and sanjhana explained kaumathy that they are with her..loved thm..

Chanman scene was gd today..love the way Manav praised cc...

and tomorrow kaumathy leaves house,..i want mukut to realsie her importance..

Loved all the scenes you mentioned 😃

According to SBS, Manav CC find Kaumudi ... will they bring her back or let her stay hidden for a while and let Mukut realise her importance?

Loved the episode... great analysis Dia... I was upset with UB too... as she sort of laid the blame at Kaumudi's door... Supriya aced today's scenes... what a wonderful actress she is!!

San was good... Kaumudi was a bit inadequate... I somehow did not feel her pain and anger and distress... looked forced.

So Mukut is bent on going away/living with the other woman and the family is shattered... wonder which way UB is going to turn!

Does Kaumudi go away on CC's advise or does she go away by herself.

One question... Will they make Kaumudi take back the errant husband ...? Will they try swinging it the other way?

Dadaji -- please stay!!

I thought Kaumudi was fine today, Ash ... no anger, she is not the type ... only pain and self blame ... which is typical for a woman like her. I felt she was inadequate yesterday, but today she showed her upset and distress better.

Supriya P was good as usual ... she looked genuinely worried and upset ... I want to see more of her conflict. After all, Kaumudi is a hand picked adarsh bahu ... she wanted a girl like Kaumudi for Manav too ... now how can she suddenly turn around and lay the blame on Kaumudi, when all the while she has been the favorite? I want to see more of that conflict in Umaben ... today she seemed genuinely upset... naturally so ... but there was no conflict in her turnaround at all.

The rest of the family have all picked sides very quickly, they all sided with Kaumudi instantly ... but will things change over the next few days? Will Umaben try to win over her sons and husband to her point of view? She won't even try with the bahus of course.

Sanaya was good today, much better than yesterday ... today I empathised more with CC siding with Kaumudi so completely as Mukut was being a complete jerk and laying all the blame on poor Kaumudi - how humiliating for Kaumudi to hear her husband say such things in front of the entire family! Sanaya showed that shock and upset very well today ...
And I also loved CC's words to Kaumudi, that she has to develop her own confidence, no one else can do it for her.

A good epi again. Things that stood out for me.

1. Kaumudi shakes her head almost imperceptibly when Mukut is about to spill the beans. Lovely acting and body language there.

2. Mukut aced his scenes. Totally unapologetic and feeling relief that his double life is now out in the open. I could feel his emotions. For someone who has been chafing against the restraints of family and marriage, he emoted beautifully. For now this moment is all about him, his freedom and what he sees as an escape from the boredom of a loveless marriage. It will be interesting when he takes the blinders off and see things from others' POV.

3. UB was spot on. In line with her characterization. UB can never be wrong ergo her sons cannot be wrong for she has raised them. So, the fault has to lie on Kaumudi.

4. The family scene rocked. Loved Matilal pronouncing that Mukut can stay if he lets go of Mayuri. The disgust and the improbability of the situation brought out well.

5. The bahus scene was spot on again. Companionship. Support. We are in this together vibe. You could almost imagine Ranjana's horror of what if something like this happened to her.

6. CC-Manav. Loved their equation and how they stand as a unit be it explaining to family or divvying up roles.

7. Kaumudi. Her fears, the self blame, the feeling of being inadequate. Being hauled up in front of the entire family for her inadequacies. Beautifully done.

Kudos CVs for a beautiful episode.

Lovely post ... beautifully written! 👏

Agree completely about Mukut ... today was his day and he was outstanding! He came across as a complete jerk ... all the sympathy I had for him over he last two episodes just vanished!!! 😆

UB's reactions, initial and delayed - spot on! So was babuji - when required, he can stand up for the right things. Loved his words - zimmedariyan nibhayi hain, rishte nahin.

Kaumudi ... her pain, her humiliation, her low self-worth ... so many women feel this way, and worse, they feel helpless, what will they do, where will they go if their husband throws them out? And UB was no help by chiming in in favour of Mukut 😕 Hope she doesn't win the men over to her side.

CC-Manav ... aww, I'd been missing them😳 ... loved the way they function as a single unit ... love their togetherness, loved the way CC went after Mukut to stop him ... and the time at the end she just said once ...Mukut bhai ... and nothing more. Beautifully acted ... and beautifully directed episode!

I am completely at a loss as to where the creatives are going with this track...so will go with the flow and not build expectations. The dialogues of Chhanchhan and UB also did not give away the plot. Right now Chhanchhan clearly feels Mukut is wrong and wants to talk to Mayuri... that is the first order of things, save the marriage from complete breakdown and then deal with how to restore love and respect to it ie. help Kaumudi understand Mukut's frustration and vice versa. Right now the whole family is distressed...and Mukut is ready to leave the house.

Of course UB supports her son either it's the "man can do no wrong" syndrome or that her upbringing/ decision for him can't go wrong and Kaumudi failed Mukut and in turn UB. Agree Diya, it takes to two to tango, marriage works when both partners work on it, but as usual UB always finds faults with bahus who are perpetual outsiders despite being married into Borisagar family.

Liked the family scene , four bahus scene...all three supporting Kaumudi and the nice touch of ChanMan in the end.

From the precap it did not look like Chhanchhan, Manek or Manthan seemed very alarmed about Kaumudi leaving. Is this Chhanchhan's plan to make Mukut realise Kaumudi's value? Hope this not going to be a quick fix track...

Dadaji is leaving for ashram? 😔

Showviewer, I still hope this is going the way we thought ... 😛

I don't mind Umaben thinking Kaumudi is at fault in some ways ... but to lay all the blame squarely on her was completely below the belt ... which is what she did, when she said Mukut is a good son, a good brother, a good father, so how can he be a bad husband? In the same way she should ask herself, Kaumudi is a good DIL, a good mother, how can she be a bad wife? But that will mean acknowledging that her son is wrong, and with that her own upbringing is in question ... so Umaben will not go that route. Much easier to blame the DIL. Even though the DIL in question is the hand picked adarsh bahu!

Today I didn't mind the entire family siding with Kaumudi and holding Mukut completely to blame - he did come across as a completely self centred selfish jerk! Babuji said it correctly - Mukut has shouldered his responsibilities, but has not done justice to his relationships.

SO let's see where the cv's take this ... I still hope it's not a quick fix solution of pay the vamp off, or shame her into leaving and then Mukut comes back penitently ... the issues in their marriage should be addressed, and most of all, UB's role, as well as Mukut's chauvinistic ways should be brought out. Also that was twice in two days that Chhanchhan told Kaumudi that she needed to show Mukut her own importance in Mukut's life, and develop her self-confidence, so I hope that is shown as well.

I think Dadaji is leaving for the duration of the track ... with him there, there would be no clash between CC and UB as he would walk all over UB. Hopefully he will be back! 😃

I also doubt this is a plan by CC Manav, because they were looking for Kaumudi in the SBS. But will they take her back home or help her hide at the Sarabhai house ... I would like to see the Sarabhais back in action, but it will be difficult for CC to tell her parents to keep secrets from her in-laws, so let's see.

I too liked the entire episode ... one of those where I didn't realise half an hour was over - it went so quickly! The good thing is the track involves the entire family, everyone is shown and it makes the episodes much more complete. The family reactions were all spot on and very good ...
Also like the way they interspersed the Muk-Kau and ChanMan individual scenes with the family showdown ... and I loved the ChhanMan scene at the end. Been missing their romance ... the hug was very welcome!

I didn't notice the BD's ... need to watch again! 😛
